I read the dust jacket of this book in a Heathrow shop a year or so back and it caught my interest. After finally grabbing a copy, I will say I was a bit disappointed. While it contained engaging content with sequences of fine writing, I nevertheless found our protagonists less than compelling and saddled with a lackluster ending. Still, an author to watch.
